How quickly a website shall open depends not only on the Internet connection of the customer, but also on the connection of the hosting machine where the website is hosted and on the network infrastructure - routers, server network card, etcetera. Slow connection or hardware which can't deal with a high volume of incoming and outbound traffic can have direct influence on the consumer experience of your visitors and the overall performance of your internet site due to the fact that people will probably see error messages that the site isn't available or it shall take a long time for your content to load. In case this sort of a thing takes place, it is not very likely that the visitors will return to the website. Because of this you must always check the connectivity of any hosting machine that you acquire and not just the main hardware components which include hard drive, processor and physical memory.
Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers
The dedicated servers we offer you feature gigabit network cards that are tested together with all other hardware components before and after any new server is put together so as to make sure that we won't use a faulty part that can cause a problem at some point. We also use the most up-to-date hardware for our internal network inside the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which can certainly cope with enormous inbound and outbound traffic to any hosting machine, whilst any traffic that isn't legitimate will be filtered and shall not take up your system resources. The continuous access to the facility is guaranteed by using redundant backbone Internet providers. That way we guarantee the fast and stable connection to all our hosting servers, which means your internet sites and applications shall be operational at top speed at all times.
